Answer:
Hydrogen
Explanation:
A reducing agent is a substance which gives up its electrons to become oxidized. Generally, metals are oxidized (reducing agents) while non-metals are reduced (oxidizing agents).
However, hydrogen which is a non-metal is usually oxidized in the presence of stronger oxidizing non-metals such as fluorine and oxygen.
Hydrogen thus, acts as a reducing agent by giving up its electrons to become oxidized. Even though among all non-metals, Hydrogen has the greatest potential to be oxidized, it is a poor reducing agent compared to reactive metals.
Answer:
The moles of sucrose that are available for this reaction is 0.0292 moles
Explanation:
Combustion is an specifyc reaction where the reactants react with O₂ in order to produce CO₂ and H₂O
This combustion is: C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + 12O₂ → 12CO₂ + 11H₂O
We have to conver the mass to moles, to find out the limiting reactant
10 g . 1 mol / 342 g = 0.0292 moles of sucrose
8 g . 1mol / 32g = 0.250 moles of O₂
The moles of sucrose that are available for this reaction is 0.0292 moles
Before we start to work with the equation we must find the limiting reactant. When you find it, you can do all the calculations.
Answer:
Option B.
Explanation:
As any reaction of combustion, the O₂ is a reactant and the products are CO₂ and H₂O. Combustion reaction for ethane is:
2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O
So 2 moles of ethane react with 7 moles of oxygen to make 4 moles of dioxide and 6 moles of water.
Then 2 moles of ethane will produce 4 moles of CO₂
The products. Without a balanced chemical equation, there is no reaction that can take place. The products is the final reation and the reactants help the final reaction take place.
D. precision. At first glance you can mark out A and B because the answers does not relate to the question. If question had said "what do you call it when the measurement is close to the actual answer" then you would have picked C. So that leaves you D. precision.
